Embracing Wholeness: Integral Psychology
Hello, my name is Tom King. Because of my own experiences and those of many of my counseling and coaching clients over the years, I have developed a special interest in helping people heal from religious shaming. I am currently writing on the topic of An Integral Path to Healing Religious Shame, and I invite you to join me on this journey.
A Comprehensive Approach
At the heart of Integral Psychology is a commitment to understanding the human experience. This approach synthesizes the wisdom of cognitive, emotional, behavioral, cultural, and spiritual traditions. Recognizing the multifaceted nature of human challenges, Integral Psychotherapy aims to foster growth and change through a holistic lens.
Personal Growth Through Integral Insights
My journey with integral psychology has been transformative in comprehending the intricacies of personal, familial, and community dynamics. It’s more than a therapy—it’s a life-long path of practicing presence, cultivating health, compassion, and authenticity.
The Foundations of Our Practice
Our methodology draws inspiration from the groundbreaking research of Professor Clare Graves, further evolved into Spiral Dynamics by Don Beck and Christopher Cowan. Ken Wilbur, a leading voice in Integral philosophy, has expanded these concepts into a developmental model encapsulating waking up, growing up, cleaning up, and showing up in life in new, enriching ways.

Healing from Religious Shaming
As I delve deeper into reading, research, and reflection, four pivotal questions emerge consistently:
- Am I truly loved?
- Am I worthy?
- Where does my security lie?
- What is the meaning and purpose of my life?
These are the questions at the core of our deepest needs, often muddled by our life experiences.
